I found a really cheap rental property that has 5: 1 bath 1 bath units. It was built in 1940 so it needs work. In a ruff neighborhood, but good for this type of rental. It needs new sub floor and leveling, roof, electrical, siding, windows, fixtures (budget), etc... We estimated at 30kish in repairs, but my husband is a building contractor and we could save a lot of money. Three of the 5 units are rented which causes a new issue, how to renovate the building while occupied? It's taxable value is 68,000 and they are asking 33,000. I was gonna offer 15-20 It rents for $200 a unit now, but after a renovation we could get section 8 at $500 a unit. We'd have to pay cash cause I don't know if they would give a loan for that property. If we bought it cash, could we get a LOC on it to renovate?
